The Gibraltar volleyball team played as many as four divisions up on Saturday as they went 1-3 in the Ashwaubenon Jaguar Classic.

The Vikings started the day with a win over Division 2 Antigo (13-25, 25-16, 15-13) before losing to D1 Ashwaubenon (17-25, 20-25), D3 Wrightstown (20-25, 10-25), and D1 Menasha (20-25, 18-25). 

The Vikings were led by Azucena Jauregui ( 22 kills, 3 aces, 25 digs, 5 blocks), Isla Fagundes (50 assists, 3 aces, 20 digs), Ella Clarke (15 kills, 3 solo blocks), and Ema Collak (8 kills, 4 aces, 17 digs).

Vikings head coach Lauren Ward called the tournament a "learning experience" because of the step up in size in competition. "We were glad to rally and defeat Antigo in a fun win," Ward said. "The rest of the matches we felt good about rising up to the level of play and operating at a high speed of defense and offense."

The Vikings will now set their sights on Algoma and Sturgeon Bay.

The Gibraltar/Sevastopol soccer team returns home on Monday to welcome Packerland Conference foe Kewaunee.

The United posted consecutive 1-1 draws on back-to-back nights last week in matches against Clintonville (Thursday) and St. Mary Catholic (Friday). Both of their goals came in the second half of the respective matches.

The Storm scored their first goal of the season last Thursday, but it was still a part of a blowout loss as they fell 9-1 to Peshtigo.

Kickoff is set for 6:30 p.m.

Gibraltar's Graham De Voe finished in 15th place in Friday's Nightfall Classic 920 to lead the team.

De Voe covered the Winagamie Golf Course 5K path in a time of 18:16 to lead the Vikings in the D3 race. Auden Palm and Luke McCormack finished in less than 20 minutes to crack the Top 60.

The Gibraltar volleyball team returns to work on Saturday when they travel to Ashwaubenon to play in the Jaguar Classic.

In their last match, the Vikings welcomed the community to its new gym and treated them to a 3-1 (25-23, 23-25, 25-11, 25-19) win over Kewaunee. Leading the way for the Vikings were Ella Clarke (15 kills, 2 blocks), Aileen Torres (9 kills, 1 ace, 12 digs), Azucena Jauregui (5 kills, 4 aces, 14 digs), and Isla Fagundes (37 assists, 12 digs, 4 kills, 3 aces).

Seven other teams including host Ashwaubenon will compete in the tournament beginning at 9 a.m.

For the second week in a row, the Gibraltar Vikings struggled get off the field on defense in a 45-8 loss to the Lena/St. Thomas Aquinas Titans 45-8 on Friday night.

The Vikings were in trouble from the opening possession when the Titans' Luke Koslowsky recovered a fumble and scored from a few yards out to make it 6-0. The Farley brothers took over the scoring from there as Lucas Farley threw for two touchdowns while Jake Farley caught one and took a punt return in for another to make it 24-0 at the break.

The Titans extended their lead to 32-0 on the opening possession of the second half when Lucas Farley found PJ Farley for a second touchdown through the air. The Vikings finally found the end zone on their first possession of the third quarter with Hobbs Emerson connecting with Wyatt Bultman on two long passes, including a 13-yard pass in the corner of the end zone to make it 32-8.

The Titans thwarted any attempt at a comeback with Lucas Farley galloping 41 yards on the following drive and Carson Joyce found the end zone for the team's final score.

With more injuries piling up in Lena, the Vikings will try to get healthy before they return home to face Valley Christian, which beat Algoma on Friday 31-14. Tim Kowols will have the call on 105.1 The GOAT beginning at 6:45 p.m. followed by kickoff at 7 p.m on Friday.

The Gibraltar football team heads Lena on Friday night to get back into the win column on 105.1 The GOAT when they play Lena/St. Thomas Aquinas.

Ethan Melotte contributed to all six touchdowns in a 42-6 romp over Gibraltar on Thursday night for Algoma last week. Hobbs Emerson was able to lead one scoring drive late, sneaking in from one yard out to make the final score 42-6. Jake Larson led the team with 49 yards rushing.

The Gibraltar/Sevastopol soccer team returns to their home pitch on Thursday with a non-conference matchup against Clintonville. 

The United snapped a three-match losing streak last Thursday with a 4-2 victory over Peshtigo. Ian Cespedes and Sammy Valdivia were among the goal scorers for the United in the victory.

The Truckers are 0-3-1 on the campaign, including a 2-1 loss to Luxemburg-Casco last Thursday. The Truckers had leveled the score when Mario Ramirez found the back of the net in the 63rd minute before giving up the game-winner in the closing minutes.

Kickoff is set for 6 p.m.

The Gibraltar cross country team headed out for its second meet of the season on Thursday, hitting the road to Kiel.

The Gibraltar Vikings volleyball team welcomed the community to its new gym and treated them to a 3-1 (25-23, 23-25, 25-11, 25-19) win over Kewaunee on Thursday.

Leading the way for the Vikings were Ella Clarke (15 kills, 2 blocks), Aileen Torres (9 kills, 1 ace, 12 digs), Azucena Jauregui (5 kills, 4 aces, 14 digs), and Isla Fagundes (37 assists, 12 digs, 4 kills, 3 aces).

Head coach Lauren Ward was complimentary of her team after its first Packerland win of the season while keeping an eye on its next conference match against Algoma. "It was great to watch our team put together a solid defense and a quicker offense against the Storm," Ward said afterwards. "The night was not without some errors, but we were able to maintain an even flow of energy and ride the momentum of the match. Ella Clarke came out swinging hard tonight, and between Fagundes' consistent setting and Azucena's defense, we were able to outlast the night."

Two local rivals collide on Thursday night when Gibraltar travels the lakeshore to face Algoma.

The Vikings scored a touchdown in all three phases of the game on Friday night as they cruised to a 48-22 win over Oneida Nation in Fish Creek last week. After an even first quarter, the Vikings dominated the second quarter thanks to the strong line play of Finn Bremer, Kaleb Hummel, and Xavier Gaddes. Larson scored two touchdowns on the ground, and Emerson bulldozed his way to another to hit halftime up 26-8. Emerson added an interception to help ward off a Thunderhawks drive midway through the second quarter. The Vikings reached the end zone three more times in the second half, but only one of them was guided by Emerson. Milo Andrews started the scoring when he came up with a fumble recovery that he took 99 yards for a touchdown, while Landen Pelkey took a Thunderhawks punt to the house to expand the Vikings' lead to 40-8. The Thunderhawks traded scores to end the game with Cornelius rushing for one score and finding Malone again for the other, while Brady White took a handoff from Larson to the end zone to end the game on a high note. Head coach Mike Peck is happy to see the growth his team is making and the success they had against the Thunderhawks, but know they have their work cut out for them against the Wolves.

The Wolves won a second straight rout on the road on Thursday, soundly beating Wausaukee 54-8 on Thursday. The Wolves scored three touchdowns in each of the first two quarters, three of which came from at least 20 yards out. The two teams traded touchdowns in the final quarter with the game well in hand for the Wolves. Ethan Melotte threw for six yards but ran for 130 yards and a score on just nine carries. Jacob Blahnik scored two touchdowns on three carries for 66 yards, while Jack Meverden rushed for 39 yards and two touchdowns. Nolan Cochart scored once on 46 yards rushing. Head coach Wade Vandervest gives credit to the players for stepping into more significant roles this season and to his staff for coaching them up and ensuring that they were ready when their number was called.

The Gibraltar Vikings volleyball team opens Packerland play on Thursday with a home match against Kewaunee.

After tournaments at Central Wisconsin Christian and Crivitz, the Vikings have split their first 10 matches.

At Central Wisconsin Christian, the Vikings went 1-2 on day one with a pool play win against Parkview 25-19, 25-19 before losing to Wisconsin Heights 26-27, 24-26 and CWC 21-25, 26-24, 11-15. They bounced back in bracket play on day two, falling to Wisconsin Heights 19-25, 25-22, 7-15 before beating SWCHA 25-17, 23-25, 15-13 and Elkhart Lake Glenbeulah 16-25, 27-26, 17-15. The Vikings were led by Ella Clarke (40 kills, 5 aces, 6 block assists), Ema Collak (27 kills, 8 aces, 53 digs), Isla Fagundes (99 assists, 8 aces, 62 digs), Aileen Torres (24 kills, 40 digs), and Azucena Jauregui (21 kills, 5 aces, 50 digs). Despite the .500 mark, head coach Lauren Ward was happy with the intensity and skill the team showed. "The girls continue to demonstrate that their level of play has accelerated both with their defense and the speed of their offense," Ward said. "Taking teams like CWC (last season's sectional semifinalist) to three sets and losses that are only a few points off, shows that hunger and intensity has improved this preseason."

At Crivitz, the Vikings bounced back from losses to 

Florence 13-25, 15-25 and Green Bay Southwest 25-22, 22-25, 9-15 before beating Marinette 25-13, 25-18 and Mercer 25-21, 25-16. Leading the Vikings once again were Ema Collak (11 aces, 14 kills, 31 digs), Isla Fagundes (29 assists, 4 aces, 14 digs), Ella Clarke (14 kills, 4 blocks), and Azucena Jauregui (11 kills, 17 digs). Ward was proud of how her team shook off the summer jitters after a rough morning. "It's wonderful to have Ema Collak back after last season's injury, and the team played united and aggressive," Ward said. "Despite the two losses in the morning, I was really proud of their fortitude and ability to adjust to the speed of play."

The Vikings face a 2-4 Storm squad that is coming off a five-match day where they went 2-3 on the day with wins over Kohler and Valders.

First serve is set for 7 p.m.

The Gibraltar/Sevastopol and Algoma soccer teams will meet Monday in Fish Creek to kick off the second full week of the season. 

The United are coming off two consecutive losses, including a 4-0 decision on Friday to Sheboygan Lutheran/Christian. Connor Schmitz led the assault for the Eagles with two goals while Enrique Zamora added two assists as the United had a -16 shots on goal margin. 

The Wolves bounced back from an 8-3 loss in their opener to beat Peshtigo 5-0 in their last match.

Kickoff is set for 6:30 p.m.

The Gibraltar Vikings scored a touchdown in all three phases of the game on Friday night as they cruised to a 48-22 win over Oneida Nation in Fish Creek.

Both teams traded scores through the air on their opening drives with Hobbs Emerson connecting with Jake Larson from 18 yards out and Osa Cornelius connecting with Delano Malone for a 28-yard score that was eight years in the making to make it 8-8 at the end of the first quarter. 

The Vikings dominated the second quarter thanks to the strong line play of Finn Bremer, Kaleb Hummel, and Xavier Gaddes. Larson scored two touchdowns on the ground, and Emerson bulldozed his way to another to hit halftime up 26-8. Emerson added an interception to help ward off a Thunderhawks drive midway through the second quarter.

The Vikings reached the end zone three more times in the second half, but only one of them was guided by Emerson. Milo Andrews started the scoring when he came up with a fumble recovery that he took 99 yards for a touchdown, while Landen Pelkey took a Thunderhawks punt to the house to expand the Vikings' lead to 40-8.

The Gibraltar/Sevastopol soccer team will have to have short memories before they head to Sheboygan Christian on Friday after falling to local rival Sturgeon Bay on Thursday 2-1.

The United will now shift their attention to the Eagles, who are 2-0 with wins over Winnebago Lutheran (7-0) and Sheboygan Falls (5-1) on the record.

The Gibraltar team will get a crack at the other half of the former United squad on Friday when they host Oneida Nation. 

The Vikings fell behind 30-0 and could only claw half of it back in a 30-16 loss to NEW Lutheran last Friday. The Vikings started the second half on the wrong foot when Hobbs Emerson threw an interception deep in Blazers territory. That set up a momentum shift in their favor when Wyatt Bultman sacked Schultz in the endzone to make it 30-2. On the ensuing drive, Emerson led the Vikings down the field before cashing in on a one yard touchdown carry to make it 30-10. After a short Bultman kick that was recovered by the Vikings, Emerson engineered another scoring drive, this time ending with Jake Larson's first touchdown of the season on a clever misdirection in the backfield. Long drives made possessions limited in the fourth quarter with neither team able to find the endzone. Emerson nearly snuck in to make it a one score game with just over 90 seconds remaining, but the Blazers' James Roeske made a tackle short of the pylon to prevent the Vikings comeback from continuing.

The Thunderhawks were supposed to open their first season back as an independent squad last Friday against Menominee Nation, but their school canceled their season before its start. They have not fielded a team since they went 1-8 in 2018. In that season, they forfeited their first two games (including one against Gibraltar) and failed to break double-figures in five other games. They were a part of co-op with NEW Lutheran/Providence Academy ever since.

Tim Kowols will have the call on 105.1 The GOAT beginning at 6:45 p.m. followed by kickoff at 7 p.m.

Florence, Goodman-Pembine, Green Bay Southwest, Marinette, Mercer, Niagara, and Peshtigo will also be making the trip to battle the Vikings and the host Wolverines with the first serves set for 9 a.m.

The Gibraltar/Sevastopol United soccer team opens play on Tuesday with a match in Fish Creek against Wrightstown.

The United went 12-7-3 last season, scoring 59 goals while allowing 37. Their season ended in the regional final round with 2-0 loss to Kiel after tipping Roncalli 3-2 in the semifinal. 

The Tigers went 5-10-3 with a -5 goal differential. They were eliminated from the postseason with a 2-1 loss to Algoma.

Kickoff is set for 5:30 p.m.

It was the worst of halves, it was the best of halves that still left the Gibraltar Vikings on the losing end of a 30-16 decision to the NEW Lutheran/Providence Academy Blazers on Thursday.

The Blazers struck first in the opening the game when Hayden Schultz found Cashe Martin for a 41 yard touchdown pass to make it 6-0. The Vikings drove the length of the field, only to fumble in the red zone and see the Blazers turn it into another touchdown drive, this time concluding with a 37 yard touchdown pass from Schultz to Julian Trimberger to make it 14-0. It was a case of deja vu in the Vikings' second drive as they fumbled the ball again in the red zone only to see the Blazers turn it into another touchdown to make it 22-0 The Blazers capped off their scoring on a Andrew Kim four-yard touchdown catch following a blocked punt to make it 30-0 at the break.

The Vikings started the second half on the wrong foot when Hobbs Emerson threw an interception deep in Blazers territory. That set up a momentum shift in their favor when Wyatt Bultman sacked Schultz in the endzone to make it 30-2. On the ensuing drive, Emerson led the Vikings down the field before cashing in on a one yard touchdown carry to make it 30-10.

After a short Bultman kick that was recovered by the Vikings, Emerson engineered another scoring drive, this time ending with Jake Larson's first touchdown of the season on a clever misdirection in the backfield.

The Gibraltar Vikings open their 2026 campaign at home Thursday night when they welcome NEW Lutheran/Providence Academy to Fish Creek.

The VIkings are coming off a 2-6 campaign a year ago with an outside chance of qualifying for the playoffs before dropping their final two games of the season. Wyatt Bultman is the only All-Across the Bay Conference player they have returning from last season's squad and the Vikings will have to replace all but 19 yards of its passing and all but 150 yards of its rushing. With a lot of new faces, head coach Mike Peck is relying on the kids that were on the team to shift into some new roles and grow as leaders.

The Blazers were 4-4 including a 43-26 win over the Vikings on September 12th, 2025. In that game, Hayden Schultz threw for two touchdowns and rushed for another three scores to guide the Blazers to victory. The Blazers will be playing without some of the players they had on last year's squad after Oneida Nation separated from the co-op to form their own team.

Tim Kowols will have the call on 105.1 The GOAT and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com beginning at 6:45 p.m. followed by the kickoff at 7 p.m.

One of the few hockey players to come out of Door County is taking his talents to the next level.

Gibraltar's Jameson Tepe has signed on to play hockey next season for the U18 AAA squad South Shore Kings.

A post shared by South Shore Kings (@ssk_hockey)

Tepe will forgo his senior season with the Green Bay Gryphons to complete the move. He helped lead the Gryphons to a state title game appearance last season. Based in Foxboro, Massachusetts, the South Shore Kings is led by by Head Coach Tyler Sullivan and Assistant Coach Mike Esposito and provides a structured, competitive environment designed to prepare players for the next level of hockey. The program has produced over 30 pro players in its history, including Noah Hanifin of the Stanley Cup runner-up Vegas Golden Knights.  

For the third consecutive season, the Gibraltar/Washington Island baseball team saw its season come to a close in the sectional semifinal, this time in a 7-4 defeat to top-seeded Rib Lake. 

The Redmen took an early 2-0 lead in the third inning when they scored on a sacrifice fly and a balk. The Vikings retaliated with one in the fourth and took the lead in the fifth inning when Cam Munao and Hobbs Emerson each singled in runs. The Redmen had their response in each of the next two innings, scoring three times in the fifth inning and two more times in the sixth to build up a 7-3 lead. The Vikings scratched across one run in the seventh on a fielder's choice hit into by Charlie Reinhardt and had the game-tying run at the plate before the game ended in a groundout. 

Luke Rericha ended his Vikings career on a high note, going 3-4 with a double. Mason Grooms went 2-3 with an RBI while Munao, Emerson and Reinhardt also posted RBI.

The Vikings say goodbye to Cam Munao, Aaron Brey, Owen Dannhausen, Luke Rericha, Kuper Tesnow, and David Olson due to graduation as the team finished with a 20-7 mark.

The Gibraltar/Washington Island baseball team hopes the third time is the charm on Tuesday morning in Rosholt when they play Rib Lake in the WIAA Sectional Semifinal.

The Vikings enter the game 20-6 on the season and riding a 12-game winning streak into Rosholt. In their 10-4 regional final win over Florence, Aaron Brey led all batters with three hits and two RBI in four at-bats, including a two-run home run. Luke Rericha added two hits while  Charlie Reinhardt (2), Cam Munao, Owen Dannhausen, Emerson, Mason Grooms, and Mason Isaacson-Krueger recorded RBI. Hobbs Emerson earned the win on the mound, going 5.2 innings allowing three runs (1 ER) on four hits while striking out six. Brey is the likely starter in game one after going six shutout innings with 12 strikeouts in a 10-0 win against Prentice.

While the Vikings' perennial stumbling block in Pacelli was elevated to Division 3 this season, Rib Lake poses to be an equally formidable opponent in the sectional semifinal. The Redmen are 19-5-1 and have won nine in a row dating back to early May. Blake Henderson leads the team in batting average (.441) while Ethan Cook has a team-high 28 RBI thanks to 10 extra base hits including eight doubles. The Redmen have two good pitchers to choose from with Seth Borchardt (1.39 ERA) and Slade Scheithauer (1.88 ERA) both with an earned run average under 2.00.

The Vikings and the Redmen will duel at Rosholt Village Park at 10 a.m. with coverage on 105.1 The GOAT with Tim Kowols beginning at 9:45 a.m.

The Gibraltar Vikings had 10 of its athletes named to the All-Packerland Conference teams for baseball, softball, and soccer earlier this week.
